5 Steps to a Gorgeous You





We’ve all been there: fabulous party time with NO time to get fabulous! I’d let you in on a secret: after one too many times hearing my husband’s “hurry up! We’re already late!” shouts coming up the stairs, I decided it was time to speed up the “making me look awesome process” before I seriously crippled him! 
So, I found myself accomplishing the task in 5 easy steps, looking gorgeous and still having an intact husband. Here goes:
You’re in a rush. Specially after a busy day you want nothing  but to look fresh and ready to roll, so...

            First things first: Perfect smile. Apply your favorite brightening up lipstick  and you will immediately see the washed out look flowing away from your face.

 Second: Sparkling eyes. Glitter up. Nothing shouts party more than a few dabs of sparkles. Apply some glitter powder over your existing eye makeup. I found it works best if you just do it lightly over your eye or smudge your lashes. Don’t over do it or you’ll end up having your eyes looking like a blinking neon sign on your face.

So now that you have your pouty mouth all set and sparkly eyes in place, you are on a confidence spin like never before and feeling all pumped up for party time, don’t forget to..

           Third: Refresh your base. Best I think is a powder foundation. Don’t go with the cream or liquids  because they will just force you to start all the way from scratch to have them looking natural and fresh. Choose a lighter tone of powder than the one you are wearing to add a fresh and brightening effect to it.

4.      Fourth: Get an instant glow adding some shimmer powder to give you a perfect polish. If you add the powder on the bridge of your nose, the top of your cheekbones and above your upper lip, it will bring focus to the center of your face and a perfect balance with your sparkling eyes and fabulous shiny lips.




And fifth, deal with your hair. If you have long hair, (and enough time for it) add some extensions to volumise your looks. But, since time is of essence here,  grab some hairspray to keep it in check all night long. If you have short hair, you can either try adding a dry shampoo before backcombing it to obtain volume or you can go with some wax to make it look shiny and in spiky (that’s me!). If your hair is wavy, go with some gel to obtain a choppy finish. And if you got curls, mousse will do the trick for you. You’ll have fresh, spunky looks without stepping into the salon at  all!






So there you have it. Five easy things that will have you looking gorgeous, 
feeling sexy and glamorous and more than ever ready to party!

Love the Skin You're In!

Glamfusion



What is the first thing you see when you see yourself in the mirror? Do you check those huge pores, or see beautiful curly lashes? Do you check for sagging body parts or for any hint of imperfection your sometimes, quite annoying, inner voice may start to point out? Well, let´s face it, we all suffer our little dose of flaws, but yet I totally agree with the very wise, very sexy Marilyn Monroe when she said that imperfection is beauty. Instead of seeing your rather elongated nose as a divine punishment for sins committed in a past life, why not start to embrace those little things that make you...you?




Like Yourself! 

Forget if you don´t match the global meaning of beauty! Take a good look in the mirror and start liking yourself. Once you start liking yourself, there will come the time when you fall deeply madly in love with yourself.
So, you don´t feel sexy? Instead of wishing for the 10,000,000 time that you had enough $$/guts to have that surgery done and have those attributes vanished forever, why not try focusing on one of those main attributes that no matter the size, big or small, make you a woman? I´m talking about the specific ones that gets you the stares of the opposite sex. The delirium tremens of every breathing, heterosexual, chromosome Y: the cleavage.

Ultra- Feminine Corsets 

We don´t have to go to extremes like our female ancestors did, where women used to wear egg yolks on their face and endure long hours of its stench just to have shiny cheeks. It´s not necessary to wear those bunch of rings around your neck either like the women of Myanmar, or to stuff yourself in tiny shoes like Chinese women used to do in the past. Not that our female ancestors didn´t come up with great ideas, they´ve come up with some of the best, like the red lipstick, eyeliner, high heels, and one of my personal favorites, the corset. Not the rib-breaking corsets, that had either whale bones, steel or wood as their framework, but how about the ultra-feminine version that has been perfected over time? You don´t have to squeeze the air out of you and cause lack of oxygen to your brain. It´s never a good idea to faint, especially if you can get a concussion

Unleash Yourself 

Nowadays, there´s no need to worry about that, you can look sexy without the risk of cutting of your air supply. The good news are that corsets nowadays can shape your body, lift your twins and don´t endanger your health. And furthermore, you can not only wear them in the sanctuarium of your bedroom to seduce your honeybuns. Thanks to the feminine revolution, tons of years after its invention, it is now permitted to wear corsets as an outer garment without being chastised by the old lady down the street. Granted, you may get a nasty look from an envious one from time to time, but the positive reactions make up for those insignificant stares of the haters.
So unleash your inner diva, lace up yourself and get ready to start loving yourself, with this very old and new invention!

Fall in Love With Your Looks




Sexy Bomb Walking? Not you? Not yet you mean!!
Dive into your closet and get out your favorite jeans and drop dead high heels! There is nothing more fulfilling to a woman when it comes down to fashion, than if her get up provides her with the sexy, glamorous, and comfortable look that has her feeling confident and fabulous. And what better way to accomplish that but with the two most perfect creations ever: your jeans and high heels. So pair them up and get ready to have traffic stopping at your every step!

Sexy Bomb Walking Rule Number One:
No matter if you are going for high heels or boots, one thing you must always remember when shopping for your perfect jeans is to make sure the length of the jeans falls AT LEAST mid way on your heels or  flat of your shoe, if not all the way down to the bottom. You don’t want it falling above mid way because it will make your legs appear shorter than they really are and remember, when you sit, your jeans will ride up a bit, and you must certainly don’t wanna give off the impression that you ran out of fabric along the way. If you are wearing boots and wanna show them off, make sure you wear them above your jeans, not below.

Sexy Bomb Walking Rule Number Two:

Boot cut jeans and high heels?  Sexy and fabulous, especially if you’re chosen heels are pointed, giving the appearance of extra length. Skinny jeans? Sexy and incredibly daring when worn with knee high boots above the jeans, making your legs appear slimmer. Turn up jeans and high heels? Funky and fun. I wouldn’t recommend these to be worn with boots, ankle boots won’t be in any way flattering with turn up jeans and wearing knee high boots just don’t make any sense if you wanna show off the “turn up”. Capris and high heels? Glamorous. Again, you don’t wanna wear these with boots. Show off some calf and let your high heels do their magic. Now….flare jeans? Not recommended for high heels. These have more focus on your hip area and gliding in these is not as smooth as with boot cut jeans and your high heels won’t show off. Baggy and high heels? Never. Your high heels will drown in them. Straight jeans and high heels? No-no.  These jeans don’t compliment a woman’s shape at all. All they bring focus to is your waist, hips and thighs…all at once! So even though wearing high heels gives a definite touch of sexiness in your stride and looks, they won’t be able to do miracles with this fit so better keep them away from each other.

Sexy Bomb Walking Rule Number Three

You must keep this in mind: we are discussing high heels here. And by high heels, we go by Jimmy Choo and Gucci’s definition: anything over 3 inches. No matter if they are shoes or boots. Now, there are 4 types of high heels you will want to concentrate on:
A.            The Cone:  a round heel, broad where it meets the sole of the shoe and narrower at the
point of contact with the ground. Perfect occasion for these: casual Friday at the office, stop for an ice cream, visiting your grandma.
B.            The Prism: three flat sides which form a triangle at the point of contact with the ground. Perfect occasion: going for lunch with your mom, catching up with friends over coffee, picking up the dry cleaning.
C.            The Wedge: occupies the entire space under the arch and heel portion of the foot. Perfect occasion: going shopping! Your feet will always be at rest. You might wanna take these to the movies, out on a Sunday BBQ, the pharmacy, a stroll with your boyfriend.
D.            The Stiletto: a tall, slim heel with minimum height of 3 inches and no more than 0.04 inch diameter at the point of contact with the ground. My personal favorite. Perfect occasion: party out (party in), going for coffee, going for lunch, a first date, casual Friday at the office, going to the movies, an ice cream, special for seduction time! Now, you might not wanna be wearing them for a endless hours shopping spree or when you will be standing/ walking for long periods of time, your feet will not appreciate that.


Pairing up your favorite jeans with your heart stopping high heels will not only have you looking sexy and glamorous, but will also make you feel confident and happy. 
Especially when all those heads start turning as you glide by!
